28. Skilled human resources - equipment - services - supplies - commodities - material - budgets or funds






29. A short unique numeric or text identification assigned to each schedule activity to differentiate that project activity from other project activities. typically unique within any one project schedule network diagram






30. Form of progressive elaboration planning where the work to be accomplished in the near term is planned in detail at a low level of the work breakdown structure - while the work far in the future is planned at a relatively high level of the work break
